Twyla on Tuesday - Another Scarf and Valentine Image

Hello sweet ladies!

I wanted to share with you a scarf I made.

I made it before Christmas and wore it throughout

the holiday season and I think that it will be just

as festive for Valentine's day!

I just made it an extra long and wide rectangle in a

simple double crochet stitch so that it could be

folded in half and wrapped around when wearing.

I decided to add the ruffled edge in winter white.

I used a new yarn called Everyday by Debra Norville.

I highly recommend this yarn!  It is great to work with

and is non pilling!  I love that all my work will continue

to look new!  I've found the yarn at Hobby Lobby

and JoAnn's.

I recently found this beautiful old postcard

and knew I wanted to share it with all of you

during our month of sharing Valentine images.

It is from 1913 and was addressed to Miss

Erma Mull.  The note started out 'Dear Girlie',

I love that!  She signs off, Lovingly Ruth.

So sweet that the affection between these two

ladies can be remembered 99 years after it

was sent.



As I mentioned last week, I am reading One Thousand

Wishes by Ann Voscamp.  She is teaching me about

thankfulness.  I was thrilled to find out that she also has

a blog!  It is called A Holy Experience and I have been

so blessed by all that this inspiring woman shares there.

She is encouraging everyone to find three things they

are thankful for everyday and at the end of the year you

will have one thousand gifts in 2012.

I am so thankful for all of you who spend a bit of

Tuesday with me.

Wishing you a most wonderful day!

Love, Twyla
